One reason not to stay... The rig is nearly full of people and so I would end up in a room on the top bunk with some catering hand... in and out all night long... they do not fly choppers out here everyday... so say I have the stack down and latched by tuesday, I probably couldn't leave until thurs or friday... Not my ball of wax...

They only fly the charter jet down here once a week, so I would have to find a commercial flight ... of which there is only one into and out of Carmen each day... so I would end up stuck in a hotel in Mexico with no transportation no phone, no communications etc... all because some one doesn't know or trust the new guy... that has been in subsea 15 years longer than I have...
But with the stay a week longer bonus you can add what to to the SSE 4 2SS....

Extra week at Roberts pay grade should be a bazillion dollars.

I think I'd be heading home. Burn up your bonus (if you get one), not to mention your time sittin' in a hotel room.... choppin' at the bit staring at the walls, then buy a commercial ticket cause your bored out of your skull.... nah, that'd drive me nuts.

Carbon fiber is to Ricers like Primer is to MobillerAlabamians.

I wouldn't have to buy the ticket... they want me here, they buy the ticket under normal or extenuating circumstances...

If you fart dust, you're old, if someone can see through you, eat a cheeseburger and skip the diet coke... Have a fully sugared one... and some fries, and save room for a shake when the other food is gone...

Hands-free phone calles while flying down the strip. Wouldn't that be something?
